Installation
As of OpendTect 6.4.5 this suite of plugins can be installed using the OpendTect Installation Manager. Just activate the WMPlugins option in the installer.
This will automatically install the latest available version of the plugin for your OpendTect installation into the OpendTect installation folder.
Compiled versions of the plugins for Linux x86_64 and Windows x86_64 are also available for download from the GitHub project release page.
Note that the plugin version installed should match the OpendTect version. For example the 6.4 series of plugin binaries should work with all OpendTect 6.4 releases but won’t work with OpendTect 6.0, 6.2 or 6.6.
The following instructions are only needed for a manual intallation.

Sitewide Installation
To install the plugins into the OpendTect program folder (eg __/opt/seismic/OpendTect/6.4.0/ __):
